Personality differences between Meng Haoran and Wang Wei

The similarities and differences in poetic styles between Wang Wei and Meng Haoran are also the similarities and differences in their personalities.

Although both Wang Wei and Meng Haoran are representative writers of pastoral poems in Tang Dynasty, their creation and artistic style are different due to their different living environment and temperament. First of all, from the following three aspects:

1. Wang Wei's pastoral poems have ethereal and quiet beauty, and the poems are quiet, beautiful and ethereal.

2. Purified feelings, expressed by purified scenery, have a pure and clear beauty. Meng Haoran's pastoral poems are closer to his own life, and the description of the scenery has the characteristics of improvisation and real carving. The language of poetry is natural and pure, which seems to be more simple than Wang Wei's poems, and poetry presents a luxurious and pale realm. Such as "Passing through the Old Village" and "Prepare chicken rice for me, old friend, you entertain me on your farm".

3. Wang Wei's Folk Songs are good at expressing the quiet beauty of empty mountains, while Meng Haoran's Zhouqu expresses the pure beauty of mountains and rivers in clear language.

Then from the artistic characteristics: Wang Wei's poems are paintings in poems and poems in poems. For example, Autumn Night in a Mountain combines the beauty of freedom and the beauty of the soul, creating the beauty of emptiness and tranquility. Meng Haoran's poems were written from a height, lingering from a lonely place, combining casual scenery with faint feelings, forming a plain, clear and endless poetic feeling in Ming Xiu. For example, the realm described in "Dongting Lake to Prime Minister Zhang" is broad and magnificent. Xiao Chun's style seems to cherish spring, but there is no trace to be found, and his language is naturally pure and beautiful. Night Sleeping in Jiande is about the sorrow of Hakka people. Its sentences are plain, but poetic.

Secondly, from the perspective of poetic style, Meng Haoran and Wang Wei's landscape poems do not pursue the beauty of words, but strive to express the beauty of the landscape itself very naturally. At the same time, they all strive to express their individuality in landscape poems. Meng Haoran often incorporates the feeling of wandering in landscape description. Because of his loneliness, the scenery is also stained with a layer of cool color, and sometimes poets are written into poems as part of the picture. Meng's poetry lacks ideal pursuit, and its basic style is indifference and loneliness. Wang Wei's landscape poems are often permeated with the nothingness and coldness of Buddhism, and the poet strives to pursue the ethereal and quiet realm away from the hubbub. So many landscape poems can't see the poet's shadow, but he can feel that he is immersed in silent happiness and shows a strong interest in nature.
